I recently had the privilege of being part of Charlie and Alex's fun-filled wedding, and what a fantastic experience it was! Their special day was held at the beautiful Mythe Barn Wedding Venue (@mythebarnweddings), a place that effortlessly blends rustic beauty with modern elegance.
The Venue: Mythe Barn
Mythe Barn Wedding Venue in Atherstone, Warwickshire is a venue that offers couples great flexibility and some stunning backdrops for their big day.
One of the best things about Mythe Barn Wedding Venue is the choice of ceremony location. You can either choose the state-of-the-art oak-beamed barn or the venue's beautiful gardens. The barn is an impressive architectural design with huge floor o eves windows bathing the couple and congregation in natural light and creating a wonderful backdrop for those once-in-a-lifetime wedding shots. If you prefer a more natural setting, the beautifully landscaped gardens provide a breath-taking outdoor space for your ceremony, allowing you to tie the knot with gorgeous Warwickshire countryside as your backdrop.
Following the ceremony, the wedding breakfast is held in 'The Grain Barn'. This is no ordinary barn; it's a contemporary structure with more huge, floor-to-ceiling windows. These allow for an abundance of natural light to flood the room while also offering those sweeping countryside views. It adds an element of the outdoors to your indoor celebration, creating a unique and unforgettable atmosphere. The room is spacious enough to accommodate up to 150 guests, making it perfect for both intimate and grand celebrations.
Speaking of guest capacities, the outdoor ceremony location can also seat up to 150 guests. This means that you can have a large gathering of your loved ones to witness your special moment.
The venue also boasts a gorgeous honeymoon suite. Large windows and full-length mirrors not only make the room feel spacious and bright but also provide some wonderful photo opportunities. Imagine waking up as newlyweds, the morning light streaming in through the window, and capturing that moment with a beautiful photo. It's the sort of memory that will last a lifetime.
Last but not least, Mythe Barn offers a generously apportioned bridal party getting-ready suite. It's an ideal space for those precious pre-wedding moments with your bridal party. The room is large and comfortable, making it perfect for your make-up artists and hairstylists to work their magic.
The Wedding: Charlie & Alex
What really made this wedding truly special were Charlie and Alex themselves. Their infectious laughter, sense of fun and relaxed approach made the whole wedding such a joy to photograph. Their love is evidently full of genuine passion and mutual respect, and I feel incredibly privileged to have been able to capture it all.
The event was also made memorable by the fantastic team of vendors that worked tirelessly to ensure everything was perfect. Kirsty from @jones_hairdressing, who styled the hair flawlessly, the talented MUAs @_glambybecky and @_makeupbychlobevins, who highlighted the bride's natural beauty, and @veilandvowbridal, who provided the stunning dress. Lucy, the florist, created beautiful arrangements that added just the right touch of elegance and charm. Beth Bakes delivered a cake that was not only delicious but also a visual delight. The soulful singing by @georgiaroeuk set the perfect ambiance, and Julie from @qualityweddingandpartyhire adorned the venue beautifully.
A big thank you to the helpful and friendly staff at Mythe Barn, who ensured that everything ran smoothly. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of the day.
Being a wedding photographer based on the Cheshire/Shropshire border, I have the privilege to witness many beautiful love stories. Charlie and Alex's wedding was one such story that will stay with me for a long time. Here's to love, laughter, and happily ever after!
